Amy shared some very personal news on the Bobby Bones Show today. She and her husband, Ben, are getting a divorce.
The decision was not made lightly, theyβve spent the last few years working towards what is most loving for everyone involved and true to the people theyβve become. And most importantly, the well-being of their kids. They went to couples therapy to figure out how to best move forward in this situation, and their top priority through all of it has been learningΒ how to co-parent and show up as the best co-parents possible. Β
Amy said sheβs very proud of how her family have navigated this situation. She said talking about it isnβt easy, but she feels like now is the right time to share it and put it out there so she can show up authentically as herself in this new chapter of her life.Β She said that the reality is you donβt ever really know fully what someone is going through. Β
They wouldnβt be where they are in this process without the love and support from their family and friends that have walked along side both of them with no judgment and given encouragement and support, as well as the wisdom and advice from therapists. She said divorce brings up so many complicated feelings and shame being the number one thing. Theyβve been working on releasing it and feel like they are both finally there. Her hope in sharing this is that anyone else who is walking through this type of loss will also be able to release any shame they feel about it because youβre not alone in what youβre going through. Β
She said itβs been a very hard time, but she finally feels like sheβs on the other side and theyβve both come out better people. Sheβs learned resilience the most through this, and in the end, her and Ben are a team and they have shown up for each other and their family with nothing but love and support. Β
